About Kimberly
Kimberly Bennett is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 19 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, low self-esteem, anger and life transitions. Sessions aim to help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to start making changes.
Her approach is person-focused and practical. She uses a mix of client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness and somatic techniques to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions include regular reviews so work can be adjusted as needed.
Kimberly has experience supporting people through bereavement, and she has worked in a hospice role for grief-related work. She also supports people with neurodivergence and holds a Diploma in Autism, applying a person-centred approach to communication, sensory processing and daily challenges.
She has worked with a national UK charity on anxiety-related support and describes herself as a coach therapist for motivation, confidence and practical goal-setting. Her practice covers common concerns such as sleep and eating difficulties, parenting strain, career stress and compassion fatigue as well as anger and trauma-related issues.
Kimberly offers therapy by phone and online and uses her experience to match approaches to each client’s needs. To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person feels heard and can explore thoughts at their own pace. It is useful for relationship concerns, low self-esteem and when someone feels unsure how to move forward.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and then practises practical steps to change them. It is often used for anxiety, anger and low mood because it breaks problems into manageable tasks.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce reactivity and support calmer responses. It can help with stress, rumination and sleep difficulties.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and review progress so the plan can be adjusted. That collaborative process helps people try methods that feel useful and stop what does not.
The biography notes she delivers therapy online and by phone. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online and phone sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins where helpful, and remove travel time so sessions work around work and caregiving commitments.
